The Battle of the Bulge (December 16-26, 1944), also known as the Ardennes Campaign, was the last major German counteroffensive against advancing Allied troops during World War II. Hitler caught the Allied forces by surprise and inflicted heavy causalties. It was bitterly cold.

The German forces snuck through wooded and hilly country in Luxembourg and Belgium with the goal of reaching Antwerp. Allied resistance, including an heroic effort by the 101st Airborne division, slowed the German forces just enough to prevent the Germans from making to Antwerp.

This battle was the largest ever fought by the U.S. Army.
